i'm sure i heard that he had the gun rigged up on an automatic system in his shed.
was that bollocks or is it true?
anyone know for sure?
It's bollocks 2nd Gen.
It's nigh on impossible to aim and hit two people that are escaping (in the back) with some "Spy Vs Spy" type contraption. He had a shotgun in the house, got it, loaded it and shot them. Simple as that. He was protecting what was his. Saying he had "no respect for life" or "the law" is no real argument, where was the burglars respect for Tony Martin??

He could have installed burglar alarm systems, for example, linked to police HQ's like many alarm systems are.
What good would that do when he lived in the middle of nowhere?? He did have police driving by his house every now and again, but thats not any good if you think about it.

i suspected as much
p.s. i think the man is truly insane. he deserves to stay in jail.
however, the burglar should not have been given any legal aid ni suing him

All right not much good, but at least he could have waited....What were the burglars doing out in the middle of nowhere?
He could have identified them and police could have searched the surrounding area....
Well, with the incompetence of the police this may not have happened.
I mean, he thought about it before he did it, that is certain.
A gun has to be loaded.
Unless he kept it loaded all the time of course, which would make him even more insane.
Its simply inexcusable to shoot people - no matter what they did.
Petty criminals is all they were, and kids....
The guy shot a kid, i mean, come on....

It was friends of my little brother.
They haven't been seen since.

So what makes you so certain, curley, that he was fearing his life?
Were they running for him at the time of the shooting, in a blazing fury, waving their arms and shouting, whilst holding weapons?
Thats what would make me fear my life, but does anyone know the exact goings-on that night?
